I think Saturday was good for us. We can't afford to lose focus, especially against a team like St. John's. Physically, St. John's is going to be the toughest team we have played. Mentally, we've got to avoid lapses.

If me or one of my (North) teammates couldn't win it, I was glad to see 'Shabby' win it. He had a great first half. We did a better job on him in the second.

We're still going. That's all that matters.

It's important to get other people involved and I could have done a little better job. I forced up a couple of bad shots.

It's a little difficult playing against coach Weaver. Everything we called out, he was familiar with. I'd call an offensive set and they knew exactly what to expect. It was like practice. You call something, and everyone in the gym knows what it is.

We have been here before, which is a big factor. We've got to come out and play our game from the opening tip.
